Particle Accelerator

Description

Can only be built on a moon The Collider can only be built on a moon. It accumulates Dark Matter for up to 8 hours of idle time — collect it regularly, otherwise production stops after 8 hours.

What it is and why you need it

Particle Accelerator — a building from the “Premium” category in Xterium. Main effect — antimatter + energy + moon protection. An endgame building. Produces Dark Matter (the premium currency), energy, and moon protection. The most expensive building in the game.

When to build

Available from day one.

What to watch out for

Energy. The building produces energy itself — it powers mines and other consumers on the planet.
